Editing Neptune (section)

==Warhammer 40,000==

Neptune was first settled during the [[Age of Terra]], with thriving colonies established on its moons. The [[Age of Strife]] saw the planet's inhabitants mutated into [[Furry|horrendous monsters]] that were eventually purged when the nascent [[Imperium]] got its act together and started reconquering the solar system. The job of cleansing these mutants fell to the [[Blood Angels|Revenant Legion]], who waged a bloody, savage campaign that saw the death of twelve thousand battle-brothers before reinforcements arrived. In the aftermath, the IX Legion replenished its numbers with recruits taken from among the survivors of the purge. In this they were aided by their gene-seed, which was unusually good at turning even the grossest mutants into gorgeous bishonen dudes.

The moons were resettled with Imperial colonists and had grown into a thriving community by the time the [[Siege of Terra]] began. One of the moons, Laomedia, was gassed by Chaos cultists, killing the entire population, while the others were ravaged by pirates and traitor Imperial Army ships brought in by [[Perturabo]]. After the end of the Siege, Neptune was reclaimed and rebuilt once again, along with the rest of the system. Its moon '''Triton''' is now a mining colony that produces something called corvinium. It was recently the site of a battle between the Dread Host of the [[Adeptus Custodes]] and a genestealer cult that had taken root in the colony; the Warden in charge of the Custodians personally slew the genestealer patriarch.
